Never expect it. Going in to a 2v1 should be assumed suicide and then you can be happy if you don't.

Well I took is as "Oh if youre in a 2v1, youre going to just combust regardless." Rushing into a 2v1 is never ideal and should be avoided, but you can win/survive those engagements. That was my mistake then.

Pickle:
However.. surviving (rather than winning) in a 3v1 on Flayed Hills or Refinery is something to be commended.  It's amazing the number of times the opposition can be distracted from capping by just one stubborn Junker that refuses to die.

Sammy B. T.:
Concerning the outnumbered thing thing, knowing the limits of your ship  and coordination with your teammate can net great results. Concentrated fire is rightfully common. However a Junker with three engis in full repair mode can be a stubborn enough beast to allow for an excellent distraction. Sometimes a 2 v 1 isn't just about escaping, but simply living long enough for your team to take advantage.

Concerning communication, as pilot spend some time talking to crew. On many ships (Junker and Pyra come to mind) battle stations are important and everyone has a job. Don't assume the importance of the job is self evident. I have found that after explaining the importance of the chain gun in armor destruction, suddenly my chain gunners are a bit more accurate and focused on the hull. Don't just say what to do, say why to do it.

Recognize success and shortcomings. Just don't be a Dick, unless of course it is followed by Tim and you are of noble heritage.
